About

The College and Career Ready Project is a charitable organization under Alignment Education. Our mission is to empower students by providing rigorous academic programs, STEM gamification, and professional learning
opportunities for career readiness. These resources enable students to pursue and earn college degrees or professional certificates and licenses from career and technical institutions.

Our Purpose

Students from diverse backgrounds often face gaps in preparation for leadership roles in top U.S. corporations. The College and Career Project is dedicated to equipping these students to lead from day one. Our programs emphasize rigorous academics, leadership training, and clear goal-setting to ensure they perform at the highest levels.

The Value of Diverse Leadership

Research shows that diverse leadership brings significant benefits to organizations. For example, a McKinsey analysis found that companies in the top quartile for gender diversity on executive teams were 25% more likely to achieve above-average profitability. Similarly, companies in the top quartile for ethnic and cultural diversity outperformed their peers by 36% in profitability. By preparing students for success from an early stage, we will develop exceptional leaders who will thrive in top-tier corporations.
